Why Choose Viking Electrical Contractors in Aberdeen?
We provide robust solar solutions designed for the North East coast.
Northern Light Advantage
Aberdeen's long summer days provide strong generation potential. Based on MCS regional yield data, a well-angled, south-facing AB postcode system could generate around 830 kWh per kWp each year. We design systems to bank this energy in batteries for use during the darker winter months.
Granite & Slate Expertise
Our teams are experienced in working with the traditional building materials of the North East, ensuring a watertight and secure installation on slate roofs.
Wind Load Protection
We calculate wind loads for every project, using reinforced mounting systems essential for coastal properties in Aberdeen and Stonehaven.

Aberdeen Solar Questions
Yes. Panels run on daylight, not heat, so Aberdeen's long summer days and cooler temperatures actually suit them well. On a south-facing, well-angled roof, AB postcode homes typically generate around 830 kWh per kWp installed each year, based on MCS regional yield data.
We're experienced fitting on the granite and slate roofs common across Aberdeen. We use mounting kits designed to protect the stone and slate, keeping the roof watertight and structurally sound.
Yes. We cover Aberdeen city and the wider Shire, including Westhill, Inverurie, Stonehaven, Peterhead, Ellon, Banchory, and Kintore.
Aberdeen's electricity network is run by SSEN (Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks). Most solar and battery systems need their approval (a 'G99 application') before switch-on, confirming the grid can accept your export. We submit this and handle all the SSEN paperwork for you.
Most Aberdeen homes don't need planning permission for a standard roof-mounted system. Listed buildings and conservation-area properties have extra rules on where panels can go, or may not qualify at all. We check your property against Aberdeen City Council's rules at the survey and flag anything that needs council sign-off.
We typically have installation slots within 4-6 weeks, and the install itself usually takes just 1-2 days. We handle the paperwork and any scaffolding, so you don't have to.
